I thought this might be of some interest to people here. Its a new firefox-like browser that is small enough to fit on a USB key and that way you can take it with you for use on public terminals etc. It routes everything through a network to effectively hide your IP address for anonymous surfing.

I haven't tried it yet but have read a couple of news articles about it and it sounds promising. And the price is right too.

Any of you tech savvy people care to comment about the effectiveness of this method of anonymous surfing?

Those anon type browser too me are just too slow

[Hulu]

Yeah I imagine there would be some slowdown while it routes through the network. But if you need anon surfing for some things, the wait can be worthwhile.

Why would one want to surf anon for?

[ourbet]

Well for one, when the government of your host country blocks you from accessing sportsbooks such a Pinny, Betfair & Mansion (to name just 3), that might be a good enough reason for some (IMHO) jjgold.

There's actually a LOT more reasons to want to surf anon....
Also, on protection/security issues - it's to your benefit BIGTIME.

Any other good anon surfing browsers?

I just use IE...are there better one's out there?...

[Yoshi]

IE sucks...i only use it if i have to, f.e. with some books.
I like Firefox, and Opera is ok too.

[pags11]

didn't know there were so many other options yoshi...yeah, IE does shut down sometimes which pisses me off...
